The manager worries me tactically, as even with what appears to be better players this season, we still seem to be playing a similar way in the league to last season. Having a lot of ball around the opposition box, but doing little with it. The defensive record isn't overly bad, but this constant lack of scoring feels concerning. Neil has now had 46 league games in charge, matching a full season, and his record is as such: Played 46 Won 14 Drawn 10 Lost 22Scored 54 Conceded 53 Points 52 Clean Sheets 12 Failed To Score 20There isn't much to shout home about there at all. The two lines in bold certainly being a worry. That's appalling, I didn't realise it was that bad.

Must have been a shit film given the amount of time you've popped onto the forum of a team you don't even support, Casanova Hope you show this imaginary wife of yours more attention when you're doing other activities- or if you can't perform will you just keep telling her you aren't bothered 😀 Haha, keep stressing, only another 3 or 4 days of stressing before the next game. I'm intrigued now as to why you're so frustrated so early, are you getting any, like? Could be the answer. Or is it your heart and soul and general well being depends on a promotion push? If that's the case I'm not on that boat, steady progress, upper midtable and hopes of a late play off spot keeps me content. Happy stressing, only another month to 6 weeks or so before we've gelled, enjoy. haha Quite the claim. And no doubt in a few weeks when things haven't improved it'll be blamed on a tough run of games There's always an excuse

Well.. we all wanted to sign players from abroad but it has it's downside too. Meybe we went over the top with it. And those Brit-centric Stoke teams of the last seven years finished where in the table again? Bloody foreigners hey. Bah.

I hear the sound of a clock ticking for those two! No matter how hard they try soon enough they can't help outing themselves as fans of Tommy Robinson and everything that goes with it! I can see Admin taking a size 12 to their respective arses like they did to Slippyblunger aka Crapslinger...🤣 You’re living in a dreamland mate, if you don’t like it don’t get involved and start telling people who admin should and shouldn’t boot out. You’d probably have me booted out as well. It’s just not for you to say really Especially as one of the more unsavoury characters from the left wing side of the fence seemingly has a free pass despite a history of abuse and ruining threads. I don't think I need to name-drop here (no, it's no Bayern 😉) Way worse than Momo, who at least posted about Stoke.

Vale have been on covered on DAB for a good few seasons now while Stoke are stuck on FM! Thats equivalent to watching a VHS Video Cassette compared to Blu Ray in terms of quality coverage. Why is it the areas No.1 club is subject to such 2nd rate coverage for so long?! Could never see BBC Radio Derby giving Mansfield Town or Chesterfield prime status ahead of Derby County as just one example. & as for Sahi & Zakuani, bet they both shared a train journey back to London together straight after leaving Carrow Road! Neither that fussed about Stoke if being honest & BBC Radio Stoke have definitely read the room wrong if they think Stoke fans are happy or content with this current arrangement! Spot on mate it's an absolute joke and there are no other radio stations in the country who prioritise the smaller local club over the bigger local club, it just doesn't happen. The main reason being that they will loose listeners and being a radio station they sort of need the listeners so I cannot get my head around it at all. I've nothing against Zakuani but he played for us for about five minutes and I'd have to Google him to remember what he looks like. Why not have a former Stoke legend who would have some genuine interest in the role- Fuller, Lawrence etc. (both live local don't they?) The ones they do have on (Cranson and Griffin to name two) sounded as though they were phoning it in.

Phil Bowers is a massive Fail fan..Don't know about Lucas Yeomans who was at the loyal Stoke fan nights or Rob Adcock or Leigh Blakeman.. May well be Fail fans ?? The lip service Radio Joke gives to it's biggest club is bizarre. We don't even get a Stoke fan as principal commentator. It's becoming as pathetic as the local newspaper

0-2 0-1 0-2 0-1, what's your point? They've won 5 out of 6, when's the last time we did anything like that? It’s weird isn’t it? Not as weird as you. I see Michael Carrick is your latest hang up

Off you go then. Clearly the wrong club and- therefore- forum for you. Not the wrong club for me at all, just got better things to do tonight than speak to impatient babies that call themselves supporters Yet here you are. Go and do some of those better things then you nimrod. Worse stats than Nathan Jones. Fact.

And another comment that makes no sense It makes perfect sense to me, I'm tired of explaining my stance now, its fruitless. I only do because this belief that 18 new players should be battering teams allready and playing with fluidity, it's an absolutely ridiculous expectation, pure fantasy. I don't expect any different from Stoke fans though in all honesty, it's wasted energy. Crap supporters Off you go then. Clearly the wrong club and- therefore- forum for you.

With Wesley playing, what do people expect? He is offering absolutely nothing and doesn’t have the excuse of adapting to English culture and football. Until Mmaee and Vidigal are back, we simply have to play Gayle. He might be poor but at least runs around a bit. We need more from footballers than 'running around a bit'. I mean, that's surely a basic requirement

Where have I said ANYWHERE he should be sacked? He needs to justify his position at the club. He's been given EVERYTHING he wanted - tripled his money, all his mates are here reshaping the club and he's signed loads of players. Zero improvement. He needs to do much much much better. You're spearheading the undercurrent Bingo, hat trick Are you pissed?

Why should we forget what he did last season? He was the manager Have you ever been given a shit Sandwich and the told to make a 5 course meal out of it to impress Gordon Ramsay? And another comment that makes no sense

If its such a shit Sandwich then why did Alex Neil leave a playoff capable sandwich for it? Shit decision making or just likes to eat shit? He has a higher loss ratio than Nathan Jones at stoke. Let that sink in. Not this season he hasnt Your comment makes no sense.

The problem we have is the huge number of players we've brought in. There is absolutely no anchor or stability in the dressing room. It's been nothing short of shifting sands since relegation. Today has been dogshit and last week no better but a new manager brings no guarantees and that's before you chuck in the man child with his trainset picking another 'failure' angle. The club is desperate for some semblance of stability. I'd say our league positions since relegation were fairly 'stable'.

I miss the guy who (allegedly) bum-bared in a Thai police station who (allegedly) had more than 1 username, it was fun trying to spot his new incarnations, like looking out for Alfred Hitchcock at the beginning of his films Also miss Bathstoke for his cultural appreciation of the 1980s and 1990s It wasn't that hard, it's more like trying to spot Owen Wilson in a Ben Stiller film.
